Leon's POV: Swarms of them began to crowd the room, the ones closest to us equipped with spiked shields. The big double doors closed behind them, leaving me, them, and the only thing they want, the girls.

Y/N is quick to act, taking out her pistol quickly unloading a round on some of the ones not covered in shields. I use my shot gun blowing the shields away before being able to do any damage.

Ashley cowers close behind as we take action. They don't have guns, only things that can be swung, which means we have a bit of an advantage.

A grenade takes care of the rest standing behind shields as the ones left in the back begin to charge.

"Give me a warning next time!" Ashley shouts moving closer to Y/N now. They seem to have been getting closer which makes me happy considering how cold Y/N was to her when they first met.

Y/N is taking care of a few with the rounds she is pumping into her pistol, while I reload my shot gun.

"Leon!" She shouts from the side of me as I'm being grabbed from the other side. Shit. My knife is quick to find my hand, before slicing open the inside of the guy's throat.

His blood squirts on me and a bit on Y/N, causing her to scoff.

Soon he is on the ground before I am pumping another villager full of led.

Y/N's POV: Ashley had taken a hit when I wasn't looking. Someone must have thrown something or attacked from behind me but she was on the ground covering her head.

Leon's attention was fast to find her.

"You okay?" He finishes off some guy before hoisting her off the ground, checking her for any open wounds.

I keep my head straight unloading another mag. This time, I shot until the gun clicked.

I shot even after he was dead.

I watched his body recoil as the bullet broke through his skin and shattered pieces of his bone fragments.

I shot, and shot, and shot, until I couldn't anymore.

"Yeah." Was all she said before I felt her arm touch my back.

Leon moved fast, looting each of the bodies we had dropped. There were more things in the castle to find loot in. Vases, cabinets, storage boxes and bins.

He took his time doing that stuff, making sure we had what we need.

We reached another room that had to be unlocked from the inside. So Leon brought me along to the side again and hoisted me up.

I felt his hands grab the outside of my thigh as I climbed onto his. Heat traveled through my body, his fingers left a trail of tingles before soon finding their way to my ankles.

Helping me up onto his shoulders, he stood slowly making sure I had grip on the wall. With a little jump, I was pulling myself over and through the open slot in the wall, dropping down on the other side.

"I'm counting on ya." I heard his muffled voice say through the wall as his foot steps grew louder behind the locked door.

I smiled openly knowing he couldn't see me right now.

I quickly opened the door, letting him and Ashley in to search.

"Good work." Leon said before patting my shoulder. The glove on his hand making an aggravating muffled slapping sound as it met my skin.

I glared at him before looking through the room with them. We went from forehead kisses to shoulder pats. Ugh come on Y/N. He's obviously not thinking about that shit right now. He is on a mission, get your shit straight.

Honestly if me having my shit straight meant he didn't think about us, then I hope its as crooked as it can get. I hope he has brain rot of me just like I do of him.

"Y/N." His deep voice vibrated behind me as he turned around to hand me a box of pistol ammo he had found. Goosebumps had never caressed me faster.

I turn around earning his gaze before quickly shoving the box of ammo into my back pocket, which was now ripping somehow?

The room we were in led into a hallway. Before I knew it we were standing in what seemed to be a jail. Odd noises were coming from below, and the more we traveled the louder the grunting got.

A huge grunt erupted from a part of the darkness not lit by Leon's flashlight. Along with the sound of clashing chains. Someone or something is trying to break free.

"Ah! What was that? Do they keep animals down here or something?" Ashley jolted forward stepping on my ankle as her arm hit the back of my head.

"Sorry Y/N." She said shyly giving me a worried face.

"No worries." I gave her a small sympathetic smile. Leon's face stayed forward, following the trail of his flashlight.

He moved quickly before signaling Ashley and us to pause. At the end of a the jail room we were in lays a corpse propped up on the wall with Spanish words written in blood above it.

Leon analyzed it staying quiet before turning back to us.

With three steps back to us, the floor under him had caved in, sending his body crashing to the floor on the wooden planks. My heart dropped hearing him crash, and Ashley only jumped on me again.

"Ah fuck." His voice was low and raspy before he began to choke on the dust around him.

"Leon?!" I shout, only getting a reply from my echo.

"Y/N he can handle it. Stay with me please." Ashley tugged on my arm, her eyes desperate as I hear moving come from below us.

Fuck.

________________

Leon's POV: My lungs burned as I got over the feel of the dust, making my way to my feet. The brick walls were dirty, filled in fresh splattered blood, chains hung from the ceiling.

Breathing shoots down my neck and passes over my ear from behind me. My heart drops as I slowly turn around.

A huge hairless mutant is chained to the wall.

"It can't see me...?" His eyes look like they had been removed, with the remaining skin stapled shut and his head is covered in gear and chains. Almost like he is wearing a metal muzzle.

I duck down and begin to creep away, trying not to make any noise whatsoever. His arms are huge long razor sharp blades just waiting to cut through someone like meat.

He pulls on the chains trying to break free as I quickly move away. Out of his cell and into another part of the dungeon.

Finally I hear the chains come off the hinges and the struggled grunting came to a pause. The only thing left were footsteps and breathing. Which grew way too fucking fast.
